Today is my birthday. So this weekend was filled with people wanting to take me out to dinner. I was very nervous going out so much. But I had wonderful experiences at the following places:

eeZ Fusion & Sushi

16925 Birkdale Commons Pkwy, Huntersville, NC 28078

The Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar

4310 Sharon Rd, Charlotte, NC 28211

BLT Steak Charlotte

110 N College St, Charlotte, NC 28202

Eez and Cowfish are sister stores. The menu is great and easy to read. You don't have to ask for a gluten-free menu. Everything is clearly marked on their standard menu. They accomodated my special request without a single blink. The manager at eeZ came over just after we ordered and welcomed me and assured me they would take special care of my order. I never asked for him to come over. He just did. Cowfish was just as friendly and accommodating. I will eat at both places again. I had sushi at both restaurants. Although, my friend had a burger at Cowfish and it looked to wonderful. It was huge. Next time I go, I will order one sans bun.

BLT Steak was very good, expensive, but worth it for a special occasion. They had a nice gluten-free menu with several options. The wait staff seemed to know exactly what my needs were and never made me feel as though I was a PITA to deal with.

I did not experience cross contamination at any of the restaurants. The wait staff at all three places were great, accommodating and acted happy to take care of me.
